The worst team I can remember

Worst team ever? Oh hell no, not even close. The 2003 Steelers were really bad especially the O-line. The 1999 Steelers were even worse losing 7 of their last 8 games of the season with each week seemingly getting worse and worse. Many Steeler fans feel that was the worst Steelers NFL season since Noll's first year in 1969 when the team went 1-13.
99 OC Was Kevin Gilbride
the DC was Jim Haslett,,,
 
If Mike Tomlin remains coach, nothing changes. NOTHING. The team will continue to be undisciplined, with a terrible running game, a patchwork offensive line, soft, running the same garbage that does not work, a minimum 2 failed WR screens every week, better suited to be pillow salesmen than NFL players.

Why the hell should the players feel like they are to blame? The HC never admits he is to blame for the monotonously horrid play.

Absolutely 100% spot on. And when asked about what they need to do better coming out of the half, "execution". Done with this arrogant, stubborn jagoff who never takes any responsibility.
 
You know what irritates me? Saturday night, the Packers started three rookies, an undrafted OL and a 4th rounder for the OL. Did Aaron Rodgers or their running game look overwhelmed?

Weird how that works.

This team is worse.

1999
Steelers lost 7 of 8, but were only down by 17+ twice.

2003
They did have five losses by 10+ points, but did not have a stretch of five games without scoring a first half touchdown.

2021




Plus just look at the roster. You likely have five starters on the offensive line who wouldn't start for another team in the league. The defense is littered with backups and practice squad level players now with injuries.
 
Khrutton was a great guy. We spoke a few times over the years.

Oh and I was on the board before Dave came on board.
mrweneedaquarterback was always entertaining.

Can't believe that none of you guys ever figured out that topseed is "deespot" (aka thespot) spelled backwards. lol

The 1969 Steelers record may have been worse. But that team had Joe Greene, LC Greenwood, Jon Kolb, Ray Mansfield and Andy Russell. I don't see that much talent on this team going forward.
 
First let me say that I have been reading this board for over 20 years. I'm quiet, and just like to get other views. I remember the F1 forum, the days of Diamond Dave, Hank, Tres Rios, TMC, CAH(God rest her soul) I've enjoyed reading, but want to start contributing.

I know I'm not saying anything that probably wasn't already said, but I just can't remember such a bad overall team. I mean I lived through the Kordell years. Kent Graham for God's sake! For all the crap we have experienced as fans I don't ever remember such bad line play, such terrible tackling, and overall effort at times. Everyone points to Tomlin, and I am the first to say I am not a fan of his, but it has to be more than that. I still don't know how they have won 7 games.

So how does it get fixed? Obviously clearing out the coaching staff would be nice, but we all know Tomlin will be here if he wants to be.

  • The first two picks this draft have to go to the offensive line, they just have to.
  • After that it will be pretty much best available, as we need depth just about everywhere.
  • As much as I have loved Ben over the years, his time will be up. We have to find a veteran QB that can bridge the gap until we find our guy.
  • I would resign JuJu as he is our best WR, and certainly our best 3rd down option.
  • I would see what we can get for Claypool. I know he has talent, but he isn't worth the headache.
Please add to the list. I like to hear what other fans think.
 
Is let Bush walk as well. Sure he’s coming back from injury, but his lack of effort has been so bad he looks like he’s playing 2 hand touch

Bush will be back next year. They will not admit to a big mistake like that. They moved up to get him. We just have to hope for improvement. Edmonds on the other hand I expect to be gone.
 
TMC...
 
Nah, Thomas Cooper knew way more than me about draft prospects.
